SUE NESPOR, San Clemente
I strongly oppose a gas station at the La Pata/Vista Hermosa location. I’ve lived in San Clemente since 1973, and through the years, I’ve seen too many gas stations fail and then become an eyesore to the community.
The current one being on the corner of Avenida Palizada/Camino de la Estrella. It’s been sitting there for years. If the gas station/car wash is allowed to go in on Hermosa/La Plata, I’m quite sure it will be coupled with a convenience store and heavens knows what else.
Not a good fit for that location or any other, for that matter. San Clemente has plenty of gas stations, in my opinion.
